Chapter 25 Apple

The most urgent task now is to pass the video review and then find a publisher.

"I'll get this done!"

Jenny volunteered.

So, this job was handed over to her, while the others were waiting for the film to be released with anticipation.

Although it is a student film, no matter who it is, I hope I can shoot a work that the audience is looking forward to, especially Katherine.

The whole of February, or even March, a group of people spent this in a mood of expectation.

Catherine looked at herself in front of the mirror and sighed a long time.

The filming of the film was temporarily over and life returned to daily life, but Catherine always felt that since that day, some minor changes have begun to occur in her body.

For example, the two hills that she is now watching at a low altitude.

It was not because of the two piles of flesh on the chest, but because whenever the companions touched it, there would be a strange feeling that rushed up from the lower body and then enveloped Catherine himself.

Below, it seemed like she was squirming, making her legs sore and her whole body lost the ability to resist.

She suddenly realized that her body seemed to be too sensitive.

She began to rub her legs, and the stimulating feeling began to sweep her whole body.

It's very exciting below.

"Am I a legendary famous weapon? Hehe..."

Katherine smiled self-deprecatingly.

At this time, the phone in the room rang, but she was the only one in the house. Catherine wrapped herself in a bath towel and walked out.

"Kate! It's completely done!"

There was Jenny's excited voice over there.

"What?"

"The video has passed the review, but..."

"Tell me."

Just pass the review.

“But many shots have been cut.”

"What?!"

Katherine jumped up.

"You know, those Catholics."

The American film rating system began to take shape in 1968, and now, the thing that restricts the release of movies is another thing - the Hays Code.

This is a film that was drafted by Catholic publisher Martin Quigley and Jesuit pastor Daniel-lord, a law that can be followed on the ethical norms of film production. This is the "Motion-picture-product-code" (motion-picture-product-code, also known as the "Hayes Code"), which was born in 1930 and criticized by filmmakers.

This thing is controlled by Catholics. After the French film "God-created-woman" was released in New York State in 1957, Catholic forces in a certain area of ​​the state tried to use money to persuade the screenwriter to cancel the schedule of the "condemned" film. After their request was rejected by the screenwriter, they launched a six-month boycott of the theater.

They even launched a march, and Catherine had seen it back then, but she didn't care at that time. Now, this matter finally came to her.

"Damn Christian."

My father used to be Jewish, and my mother used to be Orthodox, but both became atheists after marriage.

"Luckily my grandfather tried his best to negotiate... Fortunately, they didn't seem to take a B-rated movie seriously."

Lucky in misfortune.

If this is a commercial blockbuster, the shots that should be cut will probably be increased by three times or even five times.

"The publisher has also confirmed that it is Columbia Pictures. How about it? Do they need to publish it?"

"no problem."

Columbia Film Company will be renamed Columbia Pictures Company in the future and Columbia Samsung Company is a famous publisher in the United States.

Although I don't know how Jenny found them, it is obvious that this has shown that her video may have a possible success in the future.

"Kate, are you free next week?"

Jenny asked suddenly.

"Yes." Catherine replied.

"That's great, Kate, I'll have my birthday next week, and I hope you can come here too."

"no problem."

Of course I want to go on my friend’s birthday.

After hanging up the phone, Catherine began to think about the TV issue again.

TV has become popular in American families since the 1950s. Compared with the increasingly popular TV, movies have become increasingly "niche", and their audience groups have gradually differentiated. The previous experience of tens of millions of people watching the same film at similar times has been difficult to reproduce. In 1948, the average weekly number of viewers in the United States was still as high as 80 million, and before and after the promulgation of the film rating system, the number has dropped sharply to 20 million. Correspondingly, TV quickly replaced movies as the favorite for American family entertainment in the 1950s and 1960s.

And now, it is the time when television begins to become popular.

Integrated circuit TV can be said to be a reform of color TV. Now, she is eager to release her own integrated circuit TV.

Katherine has already considered it all. The reason why she chose TV game consoles instead of developing separate game consoles like Wii, PS3, and xbox360 like later generations is also very simple.

——She wants to eat the TV market together.

You need to have a view of the overall situation and a strategic vision, and this sentence is not just a saying.

The difference between men and women can be said to be here, at least mostly this is the case.

Although the gender has been changed, this overall view and what has been left behind in the previous life have not changed.

In the 1960s, American technology was developing leaps and bounds, and in the television industry, it was manifested as the popularity of color TV programs, and the entire television market more than doubled.

How to eat such a big market?

The answer is simple - bundled sales strategy.

game-TV is Catherine's killer weapon.

That's what Bill Gates did back then. His IE browser has fiercely occupied a large market with its bundled and free strategies. What Katherine is doing now is exactly the same as the future richest man in the world.

It is now 1961, the beginning of the period when American economic growth emerged as a period when Western economists called the "Golden Age". The United States' GDP developed through the "Golden Age" from US$523.3 billion in 1961 to US$106.34 billion in 1971.

After that, there was the destruction of the Bretton Woods system and the first oil crisis. Then there was China's reform and opening up and the second oil crisis...

Those things are still a little far from Catherine, but the golden age of the United States has arrived. If you can seize this golden age, you will be able to soar.

The Hays Code will be rampant for at least 7 years. Catherine knew that in these 7 years, the movies she made would be different from the box office she expected in any case, unless she made the code into history in advance. But that was at least not now.

So Katherine began to desperately seek other ways out.

TV strategy is one of them.

And can't you go to film TV series? Now is the time for TV to flourish.

"By the way, if you set up a TV company...what should it be called?"

Katherine thought about it.

"Well, just call it apple!"

I don’t know what will happen to Jobs, who is still young master now... no matter what, what does this have to do with him?

...

The contract has finally arrived, huh ~

By the way, A-cover is too small, what should I do if I grow up?
